During the training year you will spend the majority of your time based in a school alongside experienced teachers and leaders.
One day a week you will attend training which is underpinned by current evidence-informed practice and research.
These days will focus on professional studies, core curriculum (English, Maths and Science) and foundation subject pedagogy. Sessions will be delivered by expert practitioners and specialists, and will include:
Behaviour Management Learning environment Planning Safeguarding Adaptive teaching Subject and curriculum knowledge
You will be in your school from day one. At the beginning of the year you will observe expert practitioners, moving towards leading small parts of a lesson and gradually building up to teach whole lessons. You will receive the support of school-based mentors/class teachers, as well as members of the BCTSA Central Team and subject specialists. The well- being of our trainees is very important to us and we take pride in the personalised provision we offer.
To enrich your professional practice and develop your expertise you will complete 2 PGCE assignments, which will contribute 60 credits towards a Master’s degree.
